Institut des Cultures d'Islam-Léon

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

The Islam Cultural Institute hosts concerts, poetry readings, film screenings, temporary exhibitions, art workshops and cooking classes, all generally related to North Africa or the Middle East. There's a North African cafe with a mosaic-tiled terrace. Ask about fascinating walking tours of the surrounding Goutte d'Or neighbourhood (prices vary), with themes such as street art or flavours of Africa. The ICIC has a second building nearby with more exhibition space and a hammam.
